A Whitehall Township woman remains missing Sunday after she did not return to her job at a day care center on Friday in Northampton, police said.

Jessica Padgett, 33, was last seen leaving Duck Duck Goose Child Care on Canal Street at 12:50 p.m. Friday, state police at Bethlehem said Saturday. She was supposed to return a short time later but did not.

Police said they located the vehicle she was driving, a white Subaru Outback, in Northampton.

Friends of Padgett started a "Help Find Jessica Padgett" page on Facebook. According to a missing person flier posted on the Facebook page, Padgett's last contact was by cell phone to her husband at about 1 p.m. Friday.

She was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with Duck Duck Goose Staff printed on it and gray sweatpants with a while stripe down the side, according to the flier. The group has organized search efforts in the area over the weekend.

Padgett also worked at Distinctive Fence Co. in Northampton, which is where she was headed to send a fax when she disappeared, said her sister, Kristi Davis. Police are looking for video surveillance camera footage that could shed light on her disappearance.

Padgett is white, 5 feet 2 inches tall, 130 pounds with brown hair with blond highlights and hazel eyes. Anyone with information is asked to call state police at Bethlehem at 610-861-2026.
